The newest set from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics for Holiday 2014, Pro’s Picks Portable- Lip Tar: Test Tube x 12 contains twelve adorably tiny tubes of lip tar in both matte and metallic finishes. The set has been expertly coordinated by OCC artists who selected a diverse range of shades to create a variety of lip looks. They are perfect to take on the go or for trying out a bunch of different shades without committing to full size. They are also great for Makeup Artist Kits!

Don’t let the size fool you though as the lip tars pack a powerful punch. They are very pigmented and only a tiny drop is needed so these tubes will still last a very long time, especially with the variety of shades. I actually like this size better than the full size as they are too large, I’ve had some for years that I haven’t even put a dent in. Anyway, I love the shades that were chosen. It’s the perfect selection for any look that you may want to create and you can always mix them to create more.

Interlace (matte, pastel creme peach)

Zhora (metallic, peach with pink shimmer)

Annika (matte, pale peach neutral)

Cha Cha (matte, pale tangerine)

Grandma (matte, clean classic coral)

Vintage (matte, deep burgundy)

Harlot (matte, neon popsicle red)

Nylon (matte, neon bubblegum pink)

Hoochie (matte, vibrant magenta)

Digitalis (matte, pink-tinged lavender)

Sebastian (matte, plum-toned taupe)

Iced (metallic, pure white frost)

Along with the 12 shades of lip tar the set also comes with the #010 Precision Lip Brush which makes it easy to perfectly apply the lip tars. Each Lip Tar and the accompanying lip brush are 100 percent vegan and cruelty-free, and there are no parabens, sulfates or phthalates. The Pro’s Picks Portables Lip Tar Test Tube x 12 set is a great value. Pick up one for yourself and one for your bestie as it will make a perfect Christmas gift!

When I’m not hunting down the latest and greatest beauty products, beating a face or lacing a do, you can find me roaming the streets of NYC in my stilettos looking for the next best restaurant. Or in the kitchen trying to outdo myself from the last time.
